Wednesday, July 7, 2010


PayPal Security Key (seen above) creates random temporary security code that help safeguard your PayPal account when you log in.
The security key token, which costs $5, is an electronic device or “token” designed that is carried on a key ring which creates a new security code for the user every 30 seconds. PayPal users with the security token must enter the temporary code along with their username and password in order log into their Paypal account.
How to order Security Key and Setting it Up:-
Setup of the Paypal Security key is very simple. To order or setup your security key, users just log on to their PayPal account. After logging in just click on “Edit Profile” to get to the “Account Information” screen. From their click on “Get the PayPal Security Key”.


After you receive your key, revisit the same screen but this time click on “Activate your PayPal or VIP (Verisign Identity Protection) token” to get to the following screen.
Follow the three steps shown below and click on activate. Once you have activated your security key, log out of Paypal.


This type of additional security is known as two levels of authentication and is used by leading financial institutions as an additional means to protect consumers and reduce losses from online fraud.

The next time you log in to PayPal, you’ll need to enter your user name, password, and the security code generated by by pressing the button on your token.

The cheap $5 is the recommended way to give your PayPal account an extra level of security.
If you decide that you don’t want this extra level of security, you can de-activate it by logging onto your PayPal account with your security key. Once logged on, simply click on “Deactivate” which can be found on the Profile tab of your PayPal Security Key page.
